Does anything rise to the point of being an improvement goal?
Divide group into two discussion groups; each discussion group will review the data and identify 3 strengths and 3 challenges.
Group 1 Action Items: Job description activity, more robust calendar system (define guidelines), general procedural clarifications (lunch breaks vs working through lunch etc.)
Group 1 Positives: ESU 17 has a good "work culture", continuing education requests almost always approved, great relationship with our districts.
Group 1 Challenges: Mental health issues trainings, adult learner trainings, mentorship program for new employees,
Group 1 Agency Goal Possibilities: Mental health training, resources available, appropriate protocols to deal with issues that come up.
Groups come back together and share.
As a whole group, come to consensus on challenges that warrant a response (action).
Determine whether challenges should rise to the level of an agency goal or whether more data is needed (and how that data can be collected). If a challenge can be adequately addressed in 1-2 simple actions, a specific goal is not necessary.
Identify specific actions needed to address challenges.
